This week, Hal and Lindsey are joined by James Durbin. He’s a known singer, actor and American Idol participant who’s also a HUGE wrestling fan. But a major blindspot in his fandom has been New Japan Pro Wrestling’s Wrestle Kingdom 14.

For the first time ever, this event was split into two days of extremely long cards. There thankfully was no noticeable drop in match quality across both shows, but it cannot be understated: This is a LOT of wrestling and watching it all will take at least a little bit of patience.

In that spirit, we take a look at some of the major matches, including the champ-champ efforts of Tetsuya Naito, the heelish tactics of Jay White and KENTA and discuss whether or not Jon Moxley and Chris Jericho’s appearances mean we should expect more collaborations between NJPW and AEW.

The Three Count

James put over The New Day Podcast Feel the Power.

Lindsey put over Jushin “Thunder” Liger’s retirement ceremony.

Julian put over the press conference with Jushin and Tiger Mask.

Hosted by Hal Lublin, Lindsey Kelk and James Durbin.

Produced by Julian Burrell for Maximum Fun.
