Five professional wrestling promotions—NJPW, World Wonder Ring Stardom, AEW, ROH, and CMLL—agreed to co-produce a joint event, scheduling it the night after NJPW's Wrestle Kingdom 19 to leverage the Tokyo Dome audience and capitalize on cross-promotional interest.
Wrestle Dynasty took place on January 5, 2025, at the Tokyo Dome, featuring twelve matches. Zack Sabre Jr. retained the IWGP World Heavyweight Championship over Ricochet, Kenny Omega returned from illness to defeat Gabe Kidd, The Young Bucks captured the IWGP World Tag Team Championship, and Mercedes Moné won a Winner Takes All women's title unification match.
The event demonstrated that major wrestling promotions from Japan, the United States, and Mexico could collaborate on a single high-profile card. Omega's successful return ended a year-long absence, while title changes and unifications shifted championship lineages across multiple organizations simultaneously.
