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

Here we go again. Chris Jericho vs Orange Cassidy. Part two of one of the most interesting, unusual and compelling feuds in wrestling today.

I am excited every Thursday to watch AEW Dynamite, which is the best wrestling TV storytelling I've ever seen. However my favourite wrestling watching experiences are the truly great matches I've watched. Think Ciampa vs Gargano 1 or Omega vs Okada 4. I have struggled to find wrestling recently that has filled this need, old stuff aside. I watched Omega/Okada 1 again recently and it blew everything I've seen produced this year out of the water... That was until I watched

NJPW are considered the best Japanese men's wrestling promotion and I absolutely love their wrestling. The number one women's wrestling company in Japan is STARDOM therefore it's certainly worth checking out unless you hold some incredibly flawed sexist viewpoint! However, to my shame, today was the first time I have watched a STARDOM match from bell to bell. On recommendation from the excellent @DanSpursQuins (Check out his STARDOM 5 Star Grand Prix preview here) I starte

The most beloved WWE match of the modern era? Since the advent of the 'PG Era' wrestling in the WWE was often criticised by fans for not being more like the product that came before. Pure wrestling fans bemoaned the match quality and predictability. In fact, this match was the first match since 1997 to receive a 5 star rating from the Wrestling Observer in 14 years. It would take another 7 years before WWE would produce another 5 star match in the eyes of the Wrestling Obs

This match was the peak of the Four Horsewomen's time in NXT. The first of two matches between the two and the best rated of the two. This was part one of the end of Sasha Banks in NXT and the beginning of Bayley's run on top as the long member of the Four Horsewomen to stay in NXT. This match was for the NXT Women's championship with Bayley challenging Sasha Banks after earning her spot with victories over Becky Lynch and Charlotte Flair. The dynamic say a sneering Sasha

This match was WWE's first ever 5 star match from Dave Meltzer in the Wrestling Observer! It was also WWE's first ever ladder match, the first of many! This match took place at Wrestlemania 10 and was for the Intercontinental Title. Strangely, two Intercontinental Titles hung above the ring as both Michaels and Ramon claimed to be the rightful Intercontinental Champion. After Michaels was suspended, Razor Ramon won the vacated Intercontinental Title however upon his ret

This was the oft-referred to double turn, the match in which Steve Austin really endeared himself to the crowd and Bret responded by vindictively taking out his frustrations on Austin. At Wrestlemania 13 Steve Austin met Bret Hart in a submission match. It ended up being a bloody affair with the more experienced submission wrestler, Bret Hart, emerging victorious. However the story of the match was Steve Austin getting over in defeat, a blood splattered mess who refused to
