The King of DDT (Kingu Obu DDT) is an annual single elimination tournament held in DDT Pro-Wrestling. It's designed to determine the strongest wrestler of the year. From 2006 to 2008, the tournament was suspended and it was changed into a regular pay-per-view event. King of DDT was originally used in May but it was changed in 2009 to June following its return as a tournament. Usually the winners of the tournament receive a shot for the KO-D Openweight Championship at DDT's biggest event the Ryogoku Peter Pan. All KO-D Openweight Champions and also since 2018 Right to Challenge Anytime, Anywhere contract holders at the time of each tournament don't take part of the tournament.

The King of DDT was held under a system were all King of DDT's editions as 16 participants until 2018 were it was changed to 32 participants and all matches had 30 minute time-limit until it was changed in 2018 to no timit limit and a disqualification it's a draw. All final matches don't have time limit.

The King of DDT has often been used as a platform for DDT to push their rising stars. Wins by young up-and-comers over veterans in DDT would usually take their respective careers to new heights. The first tournaments were specifically created to make stars out of Daisuke Sasaki, Kudo, Kota Ibushi and HARASHIMA.
