Judgement 2022: DDT 25th Anniversary (Judgement2022～DDT旗揚げ25周年記念大会～, Jajimento 2022: DDT Hataage Nijūgo-shūnen Kinen Taikai) was a professional wrestling event promoted by CyberFight's DDT Pro-Wrestling (DDT). It took place on March 20, 2022, in Tokyo, Japan, at the Ryōgoku Kokugikan .[2] It was the twenty-sixth event under the Judgement name and the fourth to take place at the Ryōgoku Kokugikan. The event aired domestically on Fighting TV Samurai and globally on CyberFight's video-on-demand service Wrestle Universe. It was the culmination of a two-day event, which began with the Grand Princess '22 event held by Tokyo Joshi Pro-Wrestling (TJPW) on March 19 at the same venue.
Eleven matches were contested at the event, including two on the pre-show, presented as "dark matches" even though they were broadcast on Wrestle Universe like the rest of the card. In the main event, Tetsuya Endo defeated Konosuke Takeshita to win the KO-D Openweight Championship. In other prominent matches, Calamari Drunken Kings (Chris Brookes and Masahiro Takanashi) defeated Disaster Box (Harashima and Naomi Yoshimura) to win the KO-D Tag Team Championship; Mao defeated Daisuke Sasaki and Jun Kasai in a hardcore three-way match to win the DDT Universal Championship; Sanshiro Takagi defeated Michael Nakazawa in a No Disqualification "I'm sorry" match; and the team of Poison Sawada Julie, Gentaro, Mikami, Takashi Sasaki and Thanomsak Toba defeated the DDT Variety Team (Toru Owashi, Antonio Honda, Kazuki Hirata and Yoshihiko) in a 5-on-4 handicap match to win the KO-D 10-Man Tag Team Championship in the opening bout. The event also saw the retirement match and retirement ceremony of LiLiCo, as well as the announcement of an official partnership between DDT and All Elite Wrestling (AEW).[3]
