It's Omega vs Okada for the IWGP Heavyweight Championship at Wrestle Kingdom 11. This was Kenny's first shot at the big one after winning the G1 in 2016 and moving up to heavyweight. Okada was already established as the guy in New Japan, the standard bearer.The expectations were high and somehow they went above and beyond. This was the match that introduced a lot of Western fans to modern NJPW. We talk about what made this match such a moment in time and how wild it was to see Omega risk it all on the biggest stage.

Welcome to Wrestling Recommendations!Your hosts Eddy and Travis dive in with a deep retrospective and watch along to some of their favorite wrestling matches.Chosen at random by the Wheel of Destiny!On this episode, we travel back to New Japan Pro Wrestling!

Wrestling Tonight is back with Episode 112, and it's packed with everything from title changes to legal drama that could change the landscape of wrestling. AEW Grand Slam in Australia delivered some huge moments. Toni Storm reclaimed the AEW Women's World Championship from Mariah May in an emotional match. Kenny Omega & Will Ospreay teamed up to defeat Konosuke Takeshita & Kyle Fletcher in a hard-hitting tag match, building excitement for what's coming at Revolution. Okada picked up another win, but it's now clear the question is: What's next for him program-wise? Over in WWE, NXT Vengeance Day kept the momentum rolling for the brand. Oba Femi defended his NXT Championship in a chaotic triple-threat match against Austin Theory & Grayson Waller. Giulia successfully retained her NXT Women's Championship, while Stephanie Vaquer took the NXT North American Championship, setting the stage for some exciting rivalries. And a new faction made a big impact, teasing what's next for the brand. In New Japan, Hirooki Goto made history by defeating Zack Sabre Jr. to win the IWGP Heavyweight Championship. Goto's victory is a surprising moment, marking a major shift for NJPW, and all eyes are on how his reign will unfold. Meanwhile, the legal battle surrounding Vince McMahon continues to heat up. A federal appeals court ruled that McMahon's lawyer wrongly withheld documents related to hush money payments that were concealed from WWE's auditors. While McMahon's team claims that the Department of Justice's criminal investigation is over with no charges expected, his legal troubles aren't done. Civil lawsuits are still piling up, including new allegations from Janel Grant. And while Vince's legal drama intensifies, Linda McMahon faced tough questioning during her confirmation hearing for Secretary of Education. She was pressed on how she would uphold integrity while her controversial past, including the ring boy scandal, looms large. Her answers could have major implications moving forward. We also dive into potential WWE Hall of Fame inductees, updates on TNA, and early talk about what's shaping up for WrestleMania 41. Let us know what caught your attention this week!

Somehow, Bonesaw manages to sit for an entire podcast and NOT play Zelda! www.linktr.ee/juwrestling

Daniel and Bonesaw continue to maintain a good tack of actually watching shows AND THEN podcasting about said shows, and today's episode is all about Wrestling Dontaku! Well, it's actually also about Best of Super Junior 30, so that was a lie, but there's way more sound effects now, so that's something! Anyway, you listen to it now!

Our rewind series comes to a close with the match that sits atop the STAR rating board. We are of course talking about the final episode from season 3, Kazuchika Okada with Gedo vs Kenny Omega with the Brothers Jackson for the IWGP Heavyweight Championship.  The match that famously caused Big Dave to turn that star dial all the way to six for the first time in a long time and collectively melted the minds of every fan watching Wrestle Kingdom 11.  We want to thank you once again for joining us on this Rewind series as we looked back into our TIA past before we set off into our WGW future with the first episode of season 10.  Remember gang, Watch Great Wrestling -- same flavor, new wrapper! [Kenny Omega vs Kazuchika Okada, Wrestle Kingdom 11, January 4 2017]
