Wrestle Kingdom 12 is in the books, and joining Captain Jack (@JackHeartless) to talk NJPW’s biggest event for the 2nd year running is Eddie Van Glam (@eddievanglam)! They break down the full card, including the hotly anticipated double main event of Alpha vs. Omega and Naito vs. Okada, and how it met their sky-high hopes and expectations. They also dig into the start of the new year for New Japan the following night, as New Year’s Dash set the table for the New Beginning and Strong Style Evolved shows over the next few months.

Podcast Episode 313: Wrestle Kingdom 12

By Joshua Schlag on January 4, 2018 in NJPW, Podcast, RAW, SmackDown, The Steel Cage Podcast, Wrestle Kingdom, WWE

I’m not sure what’s motivating WWE to continue to put on quality television through the holiday season, but I certainly love it. Whether it’s increased pressure from shows like New Japan’s Wrestle Kingdom or (more likely) pressure from the highest stock prices $WWE has ever seen – it’s a blessing to the fanbase to be able to catch some solid shows as we begin an early start on the road to the Royal Rumble.

Speaking of New Japan, though, we are recording this week’s show just moments before the annual January 4th Tokyo Dome show takes place. We’ll give you our take on the action across the pond so you can make sure to tune in after the fact via NJPW World or AXS TV.

Featuring: Joshua Schlag (@thesteelcage / @schlizzag) and, ‘The Mayor of Reseda’ Derek (@cap_kaveman).

Bonus: Tim (@TimAgne) from Derek and Tim Eat Snacks joins us for a special surprise!
