On Saturday June 9th, 2018 the wrestling world heard about this match. Could this be considered the greatest wrestling match ever? A match that was considered the best of the best. It was a match so beloved that it garnered an astounding seven-plus star rating. The mention of the star rating was incredible because it shattered the traditional five-star system. The match itself was as close to being viewed as a perfect ad one can get. While some will argue against it for the lack of enjoyment of the typical style.

However, the narrative that Kenny Omega could never seem to beat Kazuchika Okada for the title finally was answered. The two men battled in a match that was the best 2 out of 3 falls for a total of 64:50 seconds the question was answered. If there was ever any doubt Kenny Omega had finally been crowned the IWGP Heavyweight Champion. He had defeated his longtime rival and finally conquer the unconquerable in Kazuchika Okada.
