Judgement 2013 was a professional wrestling event promoted by DDT Pro-Wrestling (DDT). It took place on March 20, 2013, in Tokyo, Japan, at the Korakuen Hall.^[1][2] It was the seventeenth event under the Judgement name. The event aired domestically on Fighting TV Samurai.

Storylines

Judgement 2013 featured seven professional wrestling matches that involved different wrestlers from pre-existing scripted feuds and storylines. 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.^[3]

Event

The first match of the main card was Kazuki Hirata's return match.

The fourth match featured the veteran Tatsumi Fujinami in a quick bout against Konosuke Takeshita.

Next was a match that saw the professional wrestling debut of Kizaemon Saiga, a Japanese kickboxer and mixed martial artist.

Next was the Right To Challenge Anytime, Anywhere Contract Battle Royal for a KO-D Openweight Championship match at April Fool 2013, on April 13. Four envelopes were suspended above the ring, each containing a "Right To Challenge Anytime, Anywhere" contract, giving the right to their holder to challenge any champion at any time in the following year. Grabbing a contract resulted in being eliminated from the match.
