Wrestling Satsuma no Kuni (レスリング薩摩の国, Resuringu Satsuma no kuni) is an annual professional wrestling event promoted by New Japan Pro Wrestling (NJPW). The event was established in 2021 and takes place in late April between the larger Sakura Genesis and Wrestling Dontaku events. The name of the event refers to the nickname of Kagoshima Prefecture, "Land of Satsuma" (薩摩の国 Satsuma no kuni), which was the core of Satsuma Domain. The event replaced Wrestling Hinokuni, which was previously held during the same period of the year in Kumamoto.
