With G1 Climax 28 in our rear view mirror and Hiroshi Tanahashi holding the right to challenge for the IWGP Heavyweight Championship at Wrestle Kingdom 13, it’s time to move on to New Japan Pro Wrestling’s first wave of fall shows to start seeing how the rest of the annual supercard will shake out. So without further ado, we’ll list ‘em out and break ‘em down!

First ones that jump out are the G1 rematches.
Will lightning strike twice and see Ishii dethrone Omega?
Tanahashi puts his Wrestle Kingdom spot on the line against Okada.

Plus we get a IWGP Junior Heavyweight tournament!

Alot of interesting matches. Would love to see Juice drop the us title to Cody. But I don't see Cody holding the NWA and US titles.

Also looking forward to
  • Ayato Yoshida & Michael Elgin vs. Killer Elite Squad (Davey Boy Smith, Jr. & Lance Archer)
I'm a big Elgin fan. He has a ton of potential. Reminds me of ECW Taz

EVIL and Suzuki are gonna batter each other in that 6 Man.

Obviously interested in the Tongans vs Bucks and Marty. Marty said after losing the titles they had to get serious about it, no more jokes. Sure thats gonna be a show stealer. Sucks they have to get through the man to do it though.
