Blake’s Take – I said it at the top didn’t I? Some of these matches are amazing! What a Wrestle Kingdom card! Day One itself has four title matches that could be a main event on any given night. Archer vs Moxley for the US title? Yes, please! In a Texas Death Match?! Oh hell yeah! Ospreay vs Takahashi? The emotions will be off the scale here. And Ibushi vs Okada? WOWOWOW!

Whatever Day One can do, Day Two basically says “hold my beer”…Jyushin Thunder Liger’s retirement match. ZSJ vs SANADA. Goto vs KENTA (OMG am I looking forward to this one). Plus the double IWGP title match. Man oh man, Wrestle Kingdom 14 is going to be mine, and many other’s Xmas 😉
