Love it
I’m using this same review for the handful of njpw dvds I just bought!This was my first exposure to NJPW since the early 90s. I Bought all the titles that were released by this company and they are fantastic! I’m Not a fan of todays sports entertainment silly acts of nonsense that insult the intelligence of it’s viewers over 12. My only complaint is the lightweight 130 lb American wrestlers that should have chosen ballet or gymnastics as a full-time vocation because it comes off very rehashed. Almost a calming slapstick fun vib, very 1970s variety hour TV special acrobatics that don’t belong in wrestling. But!!! Bc I’m not a fan doesn’t mean it shouldn’t be part of the show, I see the necessity of it to capture todays low Intellect. So I just skip the first 4 matches and get to the men of the business. A Wrestling show was always about variety. And this has it all. Big, small, short, fat, pretty, ugly, dirty, clean, violent, and passive matches. It’s refreshing to see each match is different like it should be! They all look different, move different and wrestle different. Not a carbon copy of the last match, or a carbon copy of the same look and body type of each wrestler. That’s what makes me a fan of NJPW. Glad to see things haven’t changed in the Japanese style, they still treat the sport, the wrestlers, and most importantly the fans with respect. I now have the New Japan World in my monthly subscription!

Great NJPW!!!
Top to bottom great action. Being not that familiar with NJPW and some of the wrestlers, this was fantastic. Great moves and excellent stories in each match.
