NOAH Star Navigation 2025 #1 took place on April 14, 2025, at Korakuen Hall in Tokyo, Japan. The event featured a packed card with singles, tag team, and multi-man matches that highlighted both heavyweight and junior heavyweight talent. The Main Event of the evening was a No-DQ Tag Team Match as Kenoh & KENTA battled OAWA & Tetsuya Endo of Team 2000X. The Semi-Main Event was a GHC Junior Heavyweight Tag Team Title Match as AMAKUSA & Junta Miyawaki defended against the team of F-SWAG (Gaia Hox & Jun Masaoka). There was also a pivotal bout to determine the next challenger for the junior heavyweight crown as YO-HEY (Passionate RATEL’S) fought Tadasuke (Team 2000X) in a Next Challenger Deciding Match.
