Not to mention Goto's theme is easily one of the best in NJPW.

Judging by the shirt New Japan is releasing, Sydal and Ricochet are going to be known as Aerial Dogfight. Not bad. But I see them as a All Air Express or Galaxy Aeronauts. If that make sense.

As expected, Kamaitachi lost his hair tonight, being shaved bald after losing a hair vs hair match against Maximo

As expected, Kamaitachi lost his hair tonight, being shaved bald after losing a hair vs hair match against Maximo New Japan is lucky that Kamaitachi is coming back because CMLL loved the guy. He was a standout last year with his feud with Dragon Lee being the best feud no one talks about. I hope his future is leading the Juniors and not Junior#3 in the multi-men opening show match.

Wrestle Kingdom is starts tomorrow night, for me. Barely, but it does. It kind of snuck up on me but I'm looking forward to a great show.

I've been saying to people, they should let KUSHIDA be the ace with Kamaitachi being his rival.

I'm hoping to catch this, but would have to sign up for NJPW World and likely wouldn't get to watch it live. Anybody know roughly what the real start time will be, and if it'll be possible to avoid most spoilers if I go to watch it later?

Kamaitachi has all the makings of being a big star for them, the breakout star they need to revilatize the Junior division.

The pre-show starts at 11PM PST tomorrow night, and the show proper should be around midnight that time. Not sure how spoilers will work because NJPW blitzes to show you that stuff ASAP.

There is nothing short of an atomic fire that will prevent AJ VS Nakamura from stealing the show.
But I predict Naito Vs Goto to be the underrated show stealer and would be MOTN if not for the 2 main events.

Forgive the new dude questions but how do would I access the WK10 English coverage? I'm sure there will be two links running streams of the show simultaneously. One for English and the other in Japanese. I believe that's what they did for King of Pro Wrestling this past October.

There is nothing short of an atomic fire that will prevent AJ VS Nakamura from stealing the show. Their names are Hiroshi Tanahashi and Kazuchika Okada, actually. Think about it: these two men have been feuding for four years, seven singles matches. So much history and time in the ring together that they can use for callbacks, and general placing pieces together to create a masterpiece of both workrate and storytelling. And if this is their last match, they're bound to want to go all out. These men are fighting for something beyond mere championships. Okada's great skills have only become more refined and matured this year, and Tanahashi at 100% is as great as he's ever been. Meanwhile, yes, Nakamura vs AJ is the fresher match. But these men have hardly ever wrestled before, or feuded, so the match is being promoted as a dream match, rather than a real feud like its co-main event. The stakes are not much more than just the IC belt. And they will wrestle again, so they will probably not want to pull out all the stops on the first go-round. And we know that Styles is still nursing that back injury, though it didn't seem to affect him too much in the Lethal match. I have faith in Nakamura and Styles to do great out there, but I fear that the expectations are simply insurmountable, and that lots of people may be disappointed. No kidding? Both over 6 foot and 250 lbs, both national amateur wrestling champions.

I agree that AJ/Nakamura have extreme uncontrollable expectations, anything less than MOTYC will be seen as a disappointment. Saying that, those two are two of the best in big match situations, and AJ on 50% still had a 4+ match vs Jay Lethal few weeks ago.

Katsuya Kitamura (army guy) and Noriyuki Oka (bald guy) are expected to make their debuts later in the year depending on how their training goes.
Been a long time since New Japan has had heavyweight Young Lions, these two are massive.
