Storylines
editJudgement 2019 featured twelve professional wrestling matches that involved different wrestlers from pre-existing scripted feuds and storylines. Wrestlers portrayed villains, heroes, or less distinguishable characters in the scripted events that built tension and culminated in a wrestling match or series of matches.[4]
By winning the D-Oh Grand Prix 2019 tournament on December 30, 2018, Konosuke Takeshita earned a KO-D Openweight Championship match in the main event against Daisuke Sasaki.
Event
editOn the undercard, the first two matches were presented respectively by Basara and Tokyo Joshi Pro Wrestling, two DDT sub-brands.
