On the 22nd, professional wrestling company DDT announced that Takanashi Masahiro (42), who was rushed to the hospital after suffering a neck injury during the main event of the 28th anniversary event held at Korakuen Hall on the 20th, was diagnosed with a "fracture of the C5 and C6 cervical vertebrae" and "cervical spinal cord injury" after a detailed examination. He underwent surgery on the 21st, and the company reported, "The surgery was successful, and the postoperative progress is going well. Takanashi is currently receiving treatment in the intensive care unit, and we are very sorry that we have not been able to contact those who are concerned about him. We will make an announcement regarding the future as soon as the situation is clear. We apologize to all fans for the concern, and we ask for your continued support for Takanashi."

Takanashi challenged champion Chris Brooks in the main event, the KO-D Openweight Championship. In the end, he was hit with an avalanche-style Playing Mantis Bomb (a double-arm driver technique), then dropped headfirst onto the mat in the center of the ring with a Playing Mantis Bomb, and was counted out for three. Takanashi, who appeared to have hurt his neck at the time, was unable to get up, and the ring doctor checked him immediately. Lying down in the ring, he took the microphone and said, "Thank you, DDT members and DDT fans. I love you," before being carried away on a stretcher and rushed to the hospital.
