On March 4th, the Yokohama Radiant Hall in Yokohama, Japan hosted the DDT Pro-Wrestling DDT YOKOHAMA Unlimited Vol.2 event.
The road to the March 19th KO-D Openweight Title match between the current champion Yuji Hino and #1 contender Yukio Naya began as they were on opposite sides of a tag team main event match. Yuji Hino teamed with Yukio Sakaguchi as they faced Yukio Naya and Takeshi Masada. Hino and Naya gave us a sample of what to expect on March 19th as they shared the ring on a few occasions in this match up.
