Diamond Ring was an independent Japanese professional wrestling promotion that, until 2012, was known as Kensuke Office. The promotion was founded by and is owned by puroresu legend Kensuke Sasaki, who has owned and operated it since its creation in 2005. In February 2014 the promotion ran its last card, after which Sasaki announced his retirement.

After Kensuke Sasaki became a freelancer he established his own promotion named Kensuke Office, and the promotion was run by Sasaki's wife (former joshi wrestler), Akira Hokuto, and represented Sasaki, Katsuhiko Nakajima, Kento Miyahara, Takashi Yoshioka and Takashi Okita,under the name Kensuke Office, Sasaki and pupil Katsuhiko Nakajima toured other promotions, particularly All Japan Pro Wrestling and Pro Wrestling Noah, and they also opened a training school.
