July 2023 marked 12 years since the match that defined modern day pro wrestling. Here we had CM Punk, the hometown anti-WWE character facing off against the corporate golden boy, John Cena, who is ultimately foiled by his own morals. The match at Money In The Bank 2011 served a classic in terms of the storytelling, crowd electricity, sports entertainment aspect and quality of professional wrestling it delivered. A perfect recipe for a classic. Most readers here will be very f

Review of 2003's match of the year. Kobashi vs. Misawa

Today we are contrasting the greatest rivalry in North America with the greatest rivalry of all time. That being WCW's 1989 Steamboat/Flair trilogy with NJPW's 2017/18 Omega/Okada series. In the following graphics and charts you will find an embarrassment of riches in comparative data. The 3 match series from 1989 is almost 2 hours less in the ring than the late 2010s genre bending entry, that one benefiting from having an extra match. That being said, the average length o

We will also spend some time talking about how the two wrestler's used in-ring offence to underscore wins or losses. Rivalry Overview To accurately

Greatest Matches of All Time Series - Okada/Omega 1 Written by Harry Walker Considered by many to be the greatest wrestling match of all time, the fourth instalment of the Omega and Okada rivalry is a match not only defined by exciting, compelling in ring action and a background rich and deliberate in subtle story beats, but also an epic saga which defined the years of professional wrestling surrounding it as a whole. Each encounter between these two men had huge ramification

Greatest Matches of All Time Series - Okada/Omega 4 Written by Huw Jones The ‘big fight feel’ moniker has been tossed around with reckless abandon for too long. Recently, it’s been used to describe affairs ranging from a dull and drab 0-0 bore draw between Manchester United and Leeds to the stupefyingly dismal clash of Godzilla and King Kong. It’s rarely justified, then, and it’s especially rare for these bouts to deliver on the misplaced pomp and bluster. There are, of cours

Greatest Matches of All Time Series - Okada/Omega 3 Written By Gareth Ford-Elliot Oftentimes the most overlooked of the four meetings between Kenny Omega and Kazuchika Okada, their third meeting on Day 18 of the G1 Climax 27 is arguably the most fascinating. But then I would say that as I’ve just spent 3 days mulling over all the little details. The context in which the match exists is simply fascinating with Okada only needing a draw to progress to the final and Kenny Omega

Greatest Matches of All Time Series - Omega/Okada 2 Written by Ryan Gorneault When Kazuchika Okada defended his IWGP Heavyweight Championship belt against G1 Climax Tournament winner Kenny Omega at New Japan Pro Wrestling’s biggest event of the year, Wrestle Kingdom, there was no doubt that the two would put on a great match. Still, I’m not exactly sure anybody could have predicted that match would end up being considered one of the greatest of all time. The match ended up b

Greatest Matches of All Time Series - Okada/Omega 1 This review is written by Ryan Dilbert of Voices of Wrestling and Wrestle Inn. Damn was Kazuchika Okada vs. Kenny Omega at Wrestle Kingdom 11 marvellous. Whenever your love for the art of pro wrestling wanes thanks to head-scratching booking decisions or the deluge of controversy that regularly hits the industry, return to this match. Return to a backdrop out of the ring and through a table waiting below. Return to a g

The match took the form of a heavy-handed giant and the disrespectfu
