NJPW WrestleKingdom 15 analysis: Dawn of a new Ace?

from Getting Over: Wrestling Podcast · host Adam Silverstein

New Japan Pro-Wrestling kicked off 2021 with a bang as WrestleKingdom 15 delivered in a major way over two nights. Host Adam Silverstein breaks down the biggest matches on both shows, starting with the IWGP heavyweight and intercontinental championships being on the line between Tetsuya Naito, Kota Ibushi and Jay White. "The Silver King" believes NJPW's decision to go with Ibushi was the right one and explains why Ibushi -- not Kazuchika Okada -- may be the heir apparent as the company's Ace once Hiroshi Tanahashi retires. Still, Okada and Will Ospreay delivered the best match on both shows with Okada proving to be the best in-ring performer in the world, while White and Ospreay both upped their games on a big stage. Plus, Shingo Takagi and Jeff Cobb slap meat and Hiromu Takahashi makes his two-year battle worthwhile. Follow Getting Over on Twitter @GettingOverCast.
