Real Extreme Diffusion

Real Extreme Diffusion (リアル・エクストリーム・ディフュージョン), commonly abbreviated as R.E.D or R・E・D (アールイーディ) is the top heel stable, in the Dragon Gate promotion. It was formed on September 24, 2018 by the remaining members of ANTIAS, Ben-K, Yasushi Kanda, Takashi Yoshida, Big R Shimizu, Eita and their newest member Kazma Sakamoto, with Eita positioned as the leader in the beginning before being given to Eita. Since their formation, R.E.D has since added several new members, most notably gaijin members PAC, DAGA and Diamante.

The stable had previously started in 2015, with his first incarnation VerserK, but continued in his second incarnation ANTIAS in January 2018, with its final incarnation being named R.E.D in September, based on Eita's leadership, since the end of VerserK.

After four months of their inception, R.E.D members held all titles Dragon Gate had to offer with Eita holding the Open The Brave Gate, PAC the Open The Dream Gate, Ben-K and Shimizu the Open The Twin Gate and Yoshida, Kanda and Sakamoto the Open The Triangle Gate Championships, becoming the most successful incarnation of VerserK and also meaning that R.E.D is the fastest stable in Dragon Gate history to win every championship available. In January 2019, Eita and Shimizu started feuding with each other to claim who had more power and was the leader of R.E.D, which divided the stable between Eita's side and Shimizu's, leading in May, R.E.D turning on Ben-K, with Eita retaining the leadership and Shimizu revealing he had been working with Eita.

During this time, the stable started feuding with MaxiMuM (after Big R Shimizu and Ben-K turn on them to join the stable) and Natural Vibes. The stable would also be compared to Deep Drunkers as being the worst heel units in Dragon Gate history. On September 6, 2018, ANTIAS leader Eita announced the third incarnation of the stable, it would be joined by a new member and change its name.
