Wrestle Peter Pan 2025 is an upcoming two-night professional wrestling event promoted by CyberFight's sub-brand DDT Pro-Wrestling (DDT). It will take place on August 30 and 31, 2025, in Tokyo, Japan, at the Korakuen Hall and Tokyo Higashin Arena. The event will air on CyberFight's streaming service Wrestle Universe.[1][2]

It will be the first Peter Pan event to be held on two separate nights (not counting the 2020 edition held without an audience during the COVID-19 pandemic) and will also feature wrestlers from New Japan Pro Wrestling (NJPW).[3]

Production

Background

Since 2009, DDT began annually producing shows in the Ryōgoku Kokugikan held in the summer, following the promotions financial success of the first event. This led to the event becoming DDT's premier annual event and one of the biggest event on the independent circuit of Japanese wrestling. Since 2019, the event was renamed "Wrestle Peter Pan".

Storylines

The event featured professional wrestling matches that resulted from scripted storylines, where 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.[4]
