The Right to Challenge Anytime, Anywhere is a battle royal established by DDT Pro-Wrestling promotion in 2012. The holder of the contracts have a rule that only in matches they can lose their contracts (if the holder of the contract is pinned, submitted or even by TKO the contract is passed to the opponents that got the win. This needs to be in a professional wrestling match and not at any time) it's similar to due WWE's Money in the Bank, where the prize in the match is an elbow pad containing a contract for a championship match, which can be "cashed in" by the holder of the briefcase at any point in the year following their victory. The first matches were contested in 2012 and the winners of their contracts could get any championship match, for one of DDT Championships.

History[]

2012[]

This was invented by the DDT general manager Amon Tsurumi on March 2012. At the end of March, Tsurumi announced that the Right to Challenge Anytime, Anywhere would be a Royal Rumble at the April Fool event. Then Tsurumi announced that the match had a bonus of having five separate envelopes hanging above the ring. Inside each envelope was a contract. The first competitor to grab hold of an envelope would win the prized contract kept inside. Nobody knew which envelope contains which contract.

Then the contract holder could choose a championship match for any of DDT Championships including the KO-D Openweight Championship, DDT Extreme Division Championship or the KO-D Tag Team Championship (if the holder chose a partner) or becoming the next Ken Ohka at any time. Then later on April Fool the Royal Rumble served to crown the first holders to have the Right to Challenge Anytime, Anywhere. The winners of each respective matches were Yuji Hino, Masa Takanashi, DJ Nira, Keita Yano and Tomomitsu Matsunaga. Later that night, Takanashi successfully cashed in his newly won Right to Challenge Anytime, Anywhere on Sanshiro Takagi to become the new KO-D Openweight Champion.
