Throughout Naito’s battle to get back to this point, Kazuchika Okada has enjoyed a reign of dominance which saw him set nearly every IWGP Heavyweight Championship record.

During the event, English language broadcaster Kevin Kelly announced 40,008 individuals purchased tickets to watch the wrestling spectacle. In return, NJPW was able to gross a large number at the gate.

Shibata is likely to be in Goto’s corner on the second night of Wrestle Kingdom 14, which will add to the already tense atmosphere surrounding this encounter.

A lot is on the line for both competitors who want to prove their brand of technical wrestling is superior when they meet at the Tokyo Dome.

Liger will end his career with well over 4,200 matches, with over 3,600 of them taking place at an NJPW promoted event.

If Ibushi is to reach the pinnacle of professional wrestling, he will need to clear his head and overcome the imposing figure that is Kazuchika Okada.

While fans were expecting a classic match between two of the best wrestlers of their generation; the added stipulation adds intrigue, especially for AEW fans who may now sign up to NJPW World to watch the match on January 5th.

This may be his last opportunity to prove he can be the best wrestler NJPW has to offer.

After World Wonder Ring Stardom (Stardom) announced they would have a dark match on January 4th at Wrestle Kingdom 14, they didn’t wait long to announce what the featured bout would be.

The single event for Wrestle Kingdom 13 sold 38,162 tickets, and previous reports suggest both Wrestle Kingdom 14 days are on pace to surpass that number remarkably.
