The KO-D (King of DDT) Tag Team Championship (Japanese: KO-Dタッグ王座, Hepburn: KO-D Taggu Ōza) is a professional wrestling tag team championship owned by the Japanese promotion DDT Pro-Wrestling (DDT). The title was established in 2001.[2] The current champions are Burning (Tetsuya Endo and Yuki Iino) who are in their first reign as a team. They defeated Damnation T.A (Daisuke Sasaki and Kanon) on the February 7, 2024, event of the Into the Fight 2024 tour in Shinagawa, Tokyo, Japan.

Like most professional wrestling championships, the title is won via the result of a scripted match. Although the title was established at a Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre (CMLL) event and was defended in several other promotions, it never changed hands outside of DDT. In its early days, DDT occasionally referred to the title as the "CMLL KO-D Tag Team Championship" (CMLL認定KO-Dタッグ王座, CMLL-nintei KO-D Taggu Ōza).[1]

History[edit]

First belt design used from 2001 to 2020

The titles were created in 2001 when Nosawa and Takashi Sasaki, while on tour in Mexico, allegedly defeated Starman and Vertigo on June 2, 2001, at a Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre event.

On August 16, 2001, Mikami and Super Uchuu Power vacated the titles and put it up for grab in the KO-D Tag League. They then defeated Sanshiro Takagi and Shoichi Ichimiya in the finals to win it back. However, a month later, the team split up and the titles were vacated again.[2]

The titles were vacated a third time in May 2002 after Mikami suffered an injury. It was once again contested in the KO-D Tag League and won by the Suicide Boyz (Mikami and Thanomsak Toba).[3]

The 2003 and 2004 editions of the KO-D Tag League saw respectively Seiya Morohashi and Tomohiko Hashimoto, and Hero! and Kudo win the tournament and the title.[3] On July 31, 2004, Glenn "Q" Spectre became the first non-Japanese wrestler to win the title when he teamed with Danshoku Dino to defeat Ryuji Ito and Sanshiro Takagi.

In February 2020, the belts were replaced with a new design featuring the current DDT logo.

On May 22, 2022, Asuka became the first woman to win the title when she teamed with Mao to defeat Calamari Drunken Kings (Chris Brookes and Masahiro Takanashi).[4] On November 22, it was announced that Harimau (Kazusada Higuchi and Naomi Yoshimura) would vacate the title because Yoshimura suffered an injury four days prior and would be out of action.[5]

On May 21, 2023, at the 2023 King of DDT Final event, champion Shunma Katsumata suffered a broken foot during his first defense of the DDT Extreme Championship. The following day, Katsumata had to vacate both the DDT Extreme and KO-D Tag Team Championships.[6]

Reigns[edit]

As of April 28, 2024, there have been a total of 82 reigns shared between 72 different teams composed of 63 distinctive champions, and 13 vacancies. The inaugural champions were Nosawa and Takashi Sasaki. Nine teams are tied for the most reigns at two, while individually, Harashima has the most with 11. The sole reign of Nautilus (Yuki Ueno and Naomi Yoshimura) is the longest at 296 days. The record for the shortest reign belongs to Seiya Morohashi and Shoichi Ichimiya whose sole reign lasted for four days. The Golden☆Lovers (Kenny Omega and Kota Ibushi) have the longest combined reign at 351 days. Tatsumi Fujinami is the oldest champion at 58, while Konosuke Takeshita is the youngest at 20.

The current champions are Burning (Tetsuya Endo and Yuki Iino) who are in their first reign as a team. They defeated Damnation T.A (Daisuke Sasaki and Kanon) on the February 7, 2024, event of the Into the Fight 2024 tour in Shinagawa, Tokyo, Japan.
