Revision as of 21:18, 24 September 2019

Ōdō Tournament (王道トーナメント, Ōdō Tōnamento, "Royal Road Tournament") is a tournament held annually by All Japan Pro Wrestling (AJPW) since 2013. The single-elimination tournament is a spiritual successor to the Open Championship tournament, which was held in 1975.[1] Typically, the winner of the tournament earns a future match for the Triple Crown Heavyweight Championship.

History

On July 30, 2013, All Japan Pro Wrestling (AJPW) announced a new single-elimination tournament, set to take place the following September.[1] Masanobu Fuchi, advisor to the AJPW board of directors, announced that the tournament was open to both Japanese and foreign wrestlers regardless of their weight divisions.[1] This sets it apart from AJPW's top tournament, the Champion Carnival, which is generally exclusive to heavyweight wrestlers. Since its inception, the tournament has been subtitled "Open Championship", which was a similar openweight tournament held by AJPW in 1975.[1][2] In the spirit of keeping the new tournament different from the Champion Carnival, the elimination format was set for use (the 1975 tournament was round-robin, as opposed to the Carnival which at the time was by elimination). Fuchi hailed Ōdō Tournament as the start of AJPW's rebirth,[1] coming in the heels of a mass exodus of wrestlers that led to the formation of the Wrestle-1 promotion.[3] The winner of the tournament, if not already the reigning champion, will become the number one contender to the Triple Crown Heavyweight Championship.[1] On September 23, Suwama became the only wrestler to win the tournament twice in 2016 and 2017.

2013

The 2013 Ōdō Tournament took place between September 11 and 23 and featured sixteen wrestlers. The participants and brackets were revealed on August 11. Included were the reigning Triple Crown Heavyweight Champion Suwama and four outside wrestlers; Mexican Asistencia Asesoría y Administración (AAA) representative Dark Cuervo, American freelancers D'Lo Brown and Low Ki and Austrian freelancer Bambi Killer.[4] As part of the openweight nature of the tournament, Atsushi Aoki, Kotaro Suzuki and World Junior Heavyweight Champion Yoshinobu Kanemaru from AJPW's junior heavyweight division also entered the tournament.[4][5] The tournament marked the first tour under an AJPW contract for longtime freelancer Akebono, who signed his contract on September 1.[6] On September 15, Suwama, the reigning Triple Crown Heavyweight Champion, was eliminated from the tournament in the second round by his former Last Revolution tag team partner Joe Doering.[7] After being eliminated from the tournament on September 16 by Akebono, Low Ki was sidelined for the rest of his AJPW tour with an abdominal injury.[8][9] The injury eventually led to Low Ki announcing his retirement from professional wrestling on October 14 due to AJPW supposedly not honoring their contractual obligation of medical care.[10] He, however, returned to the ring the following summer.[11] On September 23, Akebono defeated Go Shiozaki in the finals of the tournament to become the first Ōdō Tournament winner.[12][13] Following the win, Akebono went on to defeat Suwama on October 27 to win the Triple Crown Heavyweight Championship for the first time.[14][15]
