NJPW Wrestle Kingdom 10 - Amazing Card......Again!

The Briscoes are debuting in NJPW by teaming up with Toru Yano to face The Bullet Club.

There will be English commentary again but sadly no J.R. this year. Matt Striker returns with ROH's Kevin Kelly and surprisingly Yoshi-Tatsu will join the commentary team.

The show will be live on NJPW World as usual. They have also added a Chromecast App so can stream directly to the TV.

I found a channel over here in the states that actually has a NJPW show with English commentary. I'm sure its shown other places around the world to with english commentary. But still I think it's pretty awesome not having to just watch japanese wrestling with non english comentary. Sadly it is hardly ever on it seems. But I don't get the channel that TNA is moving to again or the one Lucha Underground is on, so if this is pretty consistent maybe I will make this my second show I watch.

So the show was great as expected.

The 4 team IWGP Jr. tag title match was crazy & entertaining. Loads of high spots and team combinations made it an exciting start to the show,

The trio's NEVER title match was ok, the Japanese crowd were confused by the Briscoes & the Bullet Club B team are crap. I'm glad they didn't win & it spells a return for the Briscoes to NJPW.

The ROH title match was a good bout. Elgin looks like he's becoming a popular gaijin, due to his strongman style. There was a cool spot where he deadlifted Lethal from the ring apron to the inside off the second turnbuckle. And then he turned it into a sit-out Falcon Arrow. The finish came when Elgin got hit with the Book of Truth & the Lethal Injection for the win.

The IWGP Jr. title match was great, Omega's selling of his arm was brilliant. There was a nice spot where Omega did a moonsault off the guard-rail whilst holding a trashcan.

There were lots of nice sequences and high flying moves. Kushida eventually won when he rolled through Omega's finisher and held him down for the 3.

Only watched the finish of the IWGP tag title match. It ended up with Makabe & Honma winning the belts. As we know now, Anderson & Gallows have left the company. This is Honma's first title in NJPW.

Naito vs. Goto was a good match. Naito has turned heel and had Bushi & Watanabe interfering most of the time. Goto overcome them all and beat all three of them.

Ishii vs. Shibata was a monstrous strong style war. No feeling out from either of them and then they were egging the other on to beat the crap out of them.

This was two blokes who were not going to back down from a fight unless they're carried out of the ring. Shibata finally stopped Ishii with the PK Kick to win the NEVER title. Shibata's first title in NJPW.

So this where shit goes to the next level. AJ Styles vs. Shinsuke Nakamura, billed as a dream match they didn't disappoint. The sequences they put together were masterful. Nakamura working on AJ's shoot injured back. Styles hell bent on destroying Nakamura.

Nakamura managed to draw first blood with the Bomb Ye knee.

Styles returned the favour and hit Nakamura's Bomb Ye on him.

Then capitalised with the 450 Splash.

Nakamura looked done until he rolled through and locked in a Cross Arm Breaker.

But Styles countered again with a one armed Styles Clash.

Styles then goes for the kill. He goes to the top for a Super Styles Clash. But Nakamura converts into a Super Michinoku Driver.

Nakamura hits two Bomb Ye knee finishers. And Styles is done.

Then follows a sweet moment of respect.

So that match was awesome but then the main event was a masterclass.

Hiroshi Tanahashi vs. Kazuchika Okada was a masterclass. Another epic encounter in their long storied rivalry that is on par with Rock/Austin, Steamboat Flair.

Tanahashi was taking out Okada's knee with his Dragon Screw leg whip, Okada did a great job of selling it. Tanahashi was having his way until he got dropkicked to the outside.

From there, Okada did the diving splash over the guard rail, the same as what Tanahashi did to him at Wrestle Kingdom 9.

Tanahashi recovered and locked in an excruciating Cloverleaf.

As the match continued, the suspense tightened. They started to hit their signature moves.

And then they hit their opponents finishers on each other.

As they went into the final stages of the match. The near falls were turning razor thin. Okada went for the Rainmaker but Tanahashi countered with an almighty slap. Okada would not let go of Tanashashi's wrist. Like it was the lifeline between him and becoming the ace of NJPW. As Okada rose up, he delivered 2 Rainmaker clotheslines. And then he hit a gargantuan Rainmaker to win the match.

A 5* match any day of the week.

I'm looking forward to watching this. Just need to find somewhere online where I can either watch it or download it. Looks and sounds like it was a great show. Liked the last one, so confident that I'll enjoy this one as well.

It's up on here http://watchwrestling.to/video/watch-nj … m-10-2016/ with English or Japanese commentary.

Cheers, will get right on it.

Man, some of the elbows in the Ishii vs. Shibata were nasty. Talk about working stiff and not holding back! Those two could have legit knocked each other out with how they were working. Must have steel heads and jaws. Having watched 5 hours (including the prelim match-ups), I'm taking a break.

Looking forward to the AJ Styles vs. Shinsuke Nakamura fight tho. Will watch that either tonight or tomorrow along with the last match.

That looks like such an amazing show! Unfortunately, the link isn't working for me... :-(

Yeah the site went down, I had to torrent it. Well worth finding it though from what I've seen so far.
