I watched NJPW Power Struggle on NJPW World this past weekend and enjoyed the show and action as always. The card is now being built for Wrestlekingdom 11 in January.


Even before going into the event we knew what Kenny Omega – Bullet Club Member and Winner of G1 Tournament 2016 is going to go up against Current IWGP Heavyweight Champion Okada.

This match has been in the making for many months and is a huge match that could change the course of NJPW in 2017.


Kenny Omega earned the right to be in the main event match by Winning G1 Tournament. Omega had a stellar tournament and had some amazing matches 2 standout in particular vs Naito and vs Goto in the final.

Naito
 
Naito is current IWGP Intercontintial champion and it was announced at Power Struggle that Naito would be facing Tanahashi with the story being whether Tanahashi is still able to hang and win the “big one at the big show”

 
In a recent interview Naito suggested that Japanese fans should be allowed to vote for what is the main event and feels that Omega vs Okada does not appeal to Japanese fans and feels that Japanese fans should be able to vote as to what match they want to see last at Wrestlekingdom.

 
To me this is a very blatant and pathetic attempt by Naito to push himself into the main event picture. If Naito was good enough he would be in the IWGP Heavyweight championship match – fact is he isn’t.

 
Naito is also missing the point. Wrestlekingdom is being held in the Toyko Dome in Toyko, Japan (which had it not been issues with leave from work I would of gone too) Naito is missing the fact that due to NJPW World more non Japanese fans have access to see Wrestlekingdom and what NJPW has to offer.


NJPW isn’t all about Japanese fans, NJPW is now a worldwide product that fans from all over the world can see live and as it happen so instead of a Japanese fan poll how about a World wide fan poll? I’m sure the results would be very different.

Naito is top seller in Japan but Omega and Bullet Club are best seller worldwide. Wrestlekingdom is a global show with Global appeal and as such I feel the main event should stay the same for the biggest prize iin Pro Wrestling IGWP Heavyweight Championship Kenny Omega vs Okada.

 
Naito if your not down with that I’v got two words for you……..


Thanks for Reading

WWE Royal Rumble 2013 Ziggler is Lucky Number 1...or 2

WWE Royal Rumble 2013 Ziggler is Lucky Number 1 (or 2) Dolph Ziggler This Sunday 27th January 2013 WWE Royal Rumble will air. Generally One of the best WWE PPV's of the year. This year 30 Man Royal Rumble match has alot of intrigue built into it most people are of the opinion that John Cena will be winning this years event and then go on to face The Rock at Wrestlemania. However after seeing this past Monday's WWE raw WWE might have something else in mind.,.,,  Royal Rumble 2013 A Beat the clock challenge took place on WWE Raw and the winner of this we were originally told could pick their number for the Royal Rumble Match. Dolph Ziggler Ends up winning the Beat The Clock challenge then when he is bragging about this Vicki Guerreo informs Ziggler that it is not a free choice of Royal Rumble Entry number instead it is a number chosen within a certain range Number one to Number two. Here's what WWE could do This I feel is the ideal opportunity fo

AEW All Elite Wrestling to Sky Sports in The UK?

AEW  All Elite Wrestling to Sky Sports in The UK?  All Elite Wrestling airs in the UK on ITV 4 on a Friday night and ITV Hub (Itv on demand service should be uploaded on a Thursday) ITV don't air AEW Dynamite live and a separate subscription has to be purchased via Fite.TV if fans wish to do this.  Initially things started off OK although @itvwrestling had difficulties getting Dynamite on ITV Hub on time (they promised Thursdays at 7pm) usually this was up on a Friday morning. However as the weeks went on the uploading to ITV hub did not get any better and as of this writing its as worse as it has ever been they don't upload the episodes consistently which is leaving many fans frustrated and ITV Wrestling haven't been communicating with fans. @ITV Wrestling haven't tweeted about AEW since Dec 5th - they haven't updated any of their graphics since Full Gear and ITV wrestling now seem totally disconnected from the fans and from my perspective th

Strike Wrestling Results Bournemouth May 20th 2018

Strike Wrestling Results Bournemouth May 20th 2018   Hello Wrestling fans! Welcome to the first ever Strike Wrestling Results blog!  I went to Bournemouth and took x2 trains and a bus to get there and it was well worth the effort. Before I get to the wrestling a bit about Bournemouth Bournemouth is a beautiful town it was a sunny hot day. I managed to go to the beach and see the pier and get a great view from Bournemouth on top of the cliffs, where there were also many of great restaurants and places to eat. Check out my on the road video on Strike Wrestling by clicking the video below! This was my first show at Strike Wrestling and Strike is an over 18’s show so I was expecting a different vibe, feel and presentation to family orientated wrestling that I have attended in the past. Strike wrestling is high paced, hard hitting, fast action but with a huge streak of entertainment, fun and having a great time.   From where I was
