DEXCON, in collaboration with Season Pass and Community Flea Market, presents Battle Pass, a weekend featuring professional wrestling and vintage shopping happening July 18 and 19, 2026, at Bigger Pictures in Mandaluyong City. Come for the vintage finds, stay for the bodyslams!
DEXCON Kickoff: Main Maxx vs. Romeo
The weekend opens with a milestone. Main Maxx, set to retire at the end of the year, hits his 100th match against his own Gemini Kings partner, “The Grizzled Young Unc” Romeo. The two remain a team despite recent tensions coming from a loss, but when Maxx floated another tag match for the occasion, Romeo pushed back and demanded a singles match instead, wanting to settle things one-on-one before his partner walks away from the industry.
DEXCON Kickoff: Jake De Leon vs Ares for the DEXCON World Championship
Jake De Leon defends his title against Ares, Vietnam Pro Wrestling’s own “Unstoppable Force” and reigning VPW Openweight Champion, making his first-ever appearance in the Philippines. The two have crossed paths before, when JDL came up short challenging Ares for his VPW Openweight Championship. This time, the roles are reversed, with “The Filipino Fighting Rooster” defending his own title on home turf. Ares is looking to prove that win wasn’t a fluke, while De Leon gets the chance to settle the score in front of his own crowd. It’s strength against skill, a clash of nations, and a rematch to open the weekend.
July 18: Jam of the Joshis 2
Kicking off at 6:00 p.m. is Jam of the Joshis 2, an all-female pro wrestling spectacle stacked with two marquee matchups.
For the CWE Vixen’s Championship:
Super P defends her title fresh off a run of international matches that took her from Las Vegas to South Korea to Thailand, and fresh off training at Lodestone under WWE’s own Bayley. She’s coming in sharper than ever, but so is her challenger. Sayaka Obihiro, ChocoPro’s “Sprint” has been wrestling for over fifteen years under the legendary Emi Sakura, and she’s built a reputation as one of the hardest hitters in Ichigaya, blending stiff strikes with technical submissions that have caught more than one opponent off guard. Don’t let her soft-spoken presence fool you. This is a battle-tested veteran against a champion at the top of her game.
For the Lakambini ng DEXCON Women’s World Championship:
Joya makes her third title defense, most recently having gotten past Marika Kobashi, and she’s made it clear she wants the best women’s talent in the world stepping up to challenge her. This time it’s Mei Suruga, ChocoPro’s “The Apple Girl” and one half of Best Bros with Baliyan Akki, who took the Super Asia Championship off her own trainer Emi Sakura, and has since tested herself and competed across AEW, TJPW, and other promotions in Japan and overseas. Joya’s fire meets Suruga’s unpredictable, high-flying style, and whoever walks out champion doesn’t get much time to celebrate, since she defends again the very next day at Ay Sus.
July 19: Ay Sus
DEXCON closes out Battle Pass at 6:00 p.m. with Ay Sus, a card built around homegrown Filipino talent going toe-to-toe with international stars, continuing DEXCON’s mission of showcasing Philippine professional wrestling alongside international talent.
Best Bros vs. Crystal and Jomar
Baliyan Akki and Mei Suruga, together known as Best Bros, take on the well-traveled tandem of Crystal and Jomar. Jomar is fresh off his matches in China and Thailand, while Crystal, the “Queen of Philippine Wrestling,” is a regular fixture across Southeast Asia.
For the DEXCON World Championship:
“The Filipino Fighting Rooster” Jake De Leon defends the title against “The Most Influential Influencer” Ravena in the main event, and this rivalry runs deeper than a typical title match. The two were once stablemates in Oro Plata Mata, and they’ve already shared a ring once before, in a triple threat match against the legendary Minoru Suzuki at DEXCON: Dito Naman. Ravena has spent the time chasing bigger and bigger challenges, most recently testing himself against some of the best technical wrestlers in the world. Now it’s just him and JDL, one-on-one, with the DEXCON World Championship as the only thing left to settle between them.
Free Daytime Wrestling Showcases
Both days aren’t just about the market. While you’re digging through the racks, catch free-to-watch pro wrestling showcases featuring wrestlers from World Underground Wrestling – Philippines, PUSO Wrestling, and ChocoPro Wrestling. On top of these three promotions, a lineup of international pro wrestlers will also be dropping in across the two days, so there’s always something happening on the mat.
Alongside all the wrestling action, Season Pass and Community Flea Market bring together vendors offering vintage clothing, collectibles, accessories, food, and more to Bigger Pictures across both days, free to get into. Hunt for a rare piece, grab a bite, then head over to catch the ring.
Whether you’re there for the vintage racks or the ring, Battle Pass gives you a reason to show up twice.
