First event | Indy Summit 2006 |
The tradition of holding a joint event for smaller promotions on New Year's Eve at Korakuen Hall started with the 2006 Indy Summit. Until then, the venue was used for Nippon TV's Kasou Taishou broadcast.[1] In 2007 and 2008, special editions of the Pro-Wrestling Summit were held. In 2009, a special event as part of the third Tenka Sanbun no Kei tour was held and birthed the New Year's Eve Pro-Wrestling (年越しプロレス, Toshikoshi Puroresu) brand that would persist for all future events.
