January 5, the day of Wrestle Kingdom 14 night two! While taking the subway to Korakuen Garden that morning I was shown the way there by NJPW executive, Michael Craven. He showed me his all-access pass and I foolishly did not think to ask him for one of my own!

Had Japanese curry and tonkatsu at the restaurant outside of Korakuen Garden. Good stuff! After that it was time to head back to the Tokyo Dome!

Wrestle Kingdom 14 night two! This time we got to have floor seats. Tonight was the better night of wrestling overall even though Ibushi lost again! Hearing Kaze Ni Nare was amazing and the pop when Naito won was huge!

Sushi

Celebrating Naito's win with some fantastic sushi!

Two fantastic wrestling shows down, three to go! Everything is awesome!
