We are in the Green Arena in Hiroshima as four teams do Super Junior Tag League battle during the Road to Power Struggle tour.

After a stellar opening night of the Super Junior Tag League tournament, things ground to a halt.

The Super Junior Tag League kicks off in a big way on the first night of NJPW’s Road to Power Struggle 2018 tour.

Suit and August review a wild, newsworthy and company-altering NJPW King of Pro-Wrestling 2018 show from Tokyo’s Ryōgoku Kokugikan.

Fighting Spirit Unleashed was a superb top-to-bottom show highlighted by a handful of stellar tag matches and Ospreay vs. Scurll.

After two somewhat lackluster Destruction shows, we are rewarded with NJPW Destruction in Kobe 2018, a hot wrestling event from beginning to end.

Despite the fun undercard, NJPW Destruction in Beppu 2018 was a largely disappointing NJPW show.

NJPW Destruction in Hiroshima 2018 featured a very skippable undercard but a must-watch main event between two of the very best in wrestling today.

This was a show with inoffensive, yet bland, multi-man matches but the singles match and main event took this Road to Destruction show to another level.

Skip everything else and go straight to the G1 Climax 28 Final for an instant classic that will surely go down as one of the very best matches of 2018.

What an incredible night of action in a sold-out Budokan Hall to cap off what has been an all-time block in G1 Climax history.

Another masterpiece from Tanahashi & Okada proves to be one of their most important matches ever as Tanahashi punches his ticket to the G1 Climax 28 Finals.

Night 16 of G1 Climax 28 featured no elite tier matches, but some incredibly fun stuff on the undercard, and a main event that delivered.

Overall this was an above-average G1 Climax 28, especially on the sliding A block scale and I would highly recommend Page vs. Suzuki, which was excellent.

The B Block is nearing its conclusion and G1 Climax 28 Night 14 could play a huge role in determining the block winner.

Okada and Suzuki square off in the main event of G1 Climax 28 Night 13 — would Okada/Suzuki once again go to a 30-minute draw?

Night 12 of the G1 Climax 28 was another strong night for the B Block. This show had three very good-great matches.

Okada vs. Elgin really saved G1 Climax 28 Night 11. I can’t recommend this one as a whole, but definitely go out of your way to watch the main event.

The B block had another night of action before a hot crowd in Aichi. The potential is clear for G1 Climax 28 Night 10 to deliver at least one classic. Did it deliver?

Night 8 was the weakest B Block show so far, but G1 Climax 28 Night 8 was still a very strong event overall speaking to the quality of talent in the block.

NJPW G1 Climax 28 Night 9 was an easy watch, but nothing on it was necessary viewing except maybe Okada’s trolling and a really good Page/EVIL match.

Even though the B Block continues to be the superior of the two blocks, G1 Climax 28 Night 7 proved that not everything is doom and gloom within the A Block.

NJPW G1 Climax 28 Night 5 was a breeze to watch with 3 matches over 4 stars

Go out of your way to watch Ishii/Goto, and go out of your way to avoid Omega/Tonga from G1 Climax 28 Night 6.

Skip the first match and enjoy the rest of the great G1 Climax 28 Night 4 show.

The G1 Climax 28 A Block continues to be disappointing. The shows are not bad, but we have such higher expectations then we are getting.

After the G1 Climax 28 got off to a less than stellar start on Night 1 with the A Block, the B Block delivered a really great show on Night 2.
