By John Bills /

Time truly does fly in the world of professional wrestling, and 2016 is almost upon us. Of course, there is little time to breathe in this crazy world, and the first major show of the year comes in the form of New Japan Pro Wrestling and Wrestle Kingdom 10. The show takes place at the Tokyo Dome, one of the most famous venues in the world, and to call the card stacked would be a massive understatement. There is every chance that it'll be the best show of the year as well, if last year's effort is anything to go by. Whether it was the better than it had any right to be hybrid battle between Minoru Suzuki and Kazushi Sakuraba, the hoss violence between Tomohiro Ishii and Togi Makabe or the simply untouchable semi and main of Nakaumura/Ibushi and Okada/Tanahashi, it was a fantastic show. As difficult as it is to believe, this year's show looks like it will take something disastrous for it to fail to eclipse the 2015 edition.The world of New Japan Pro Wrestling is still a little foreign to many wrestling fans, and throughout this preview I will try to introduce the various characters and stories as best I can. So without further ado, here is everything you need to know about NJPW Wrestle Kingdom 10.
