WILW: Okada vs Omega

So here we are, two weeks into 2017, and just like last year Wrestle Kingdom has gone and produced the probable Match of the Year. For what it’s worth Dave Metlzer, of Wrestling Observer fame, has never given a match more than five stars. Except this one. The main event of Wrestle Kingdom 11 may not have just been the best match of 2017 when all is said and done, it may be the best match of all time. The story told in this match is just impeccable. These two are at the absolute top of their game. The crowd is played perfectly. The match is paced perfectly. It is simply that, perfect. I may not have loved the outcome from a fan perspective, my guy didn’t win, but damn if this isn’t amazing. Check it out for yourself below and follow me on twitter to let me know what you thought of this match. Until then…

Dan Ryan

Dan Ryan was once the most feared and respected luchador in the world until the "Great DDT Disaster of '85" where Dan unfortunately DDT'd his opponent so hard into the ground that he opened a gate to the underworld that let unholy things into this world. After that, Dan refused to wrestle anymore but he's found new life writing and talking about his favorite hobbies here at Geekade. He pens the weekly Why I Love Wrestling series, co-hosts The Stone Age Gamer Podcast, expertly pairs video games with beer, and much, much more. Dan is a personality that Geekade simply would not be the same without.

    I just watched the AXS coverage this morning and the match was fantastic. It’s amazing Okada is still alive.
