7 Reasons You Should Watch NJPW Dominion This Weekend
5. Will Ospreay Vs. Hiromu Takahashi
If you only know about Will Ospreay through the gifs shared of his incredible spots, you might believe he's a spot monkey. He is, but as his second run with the IWGP Jr. Heavyweight Championship shows, the man is legitimately one of the best professional wrestlers in the world right now. Full of hard-hitting action, outrageous spots, and intense emotional performances, Ospreay's title defenses have made the Jr. Heavyweight belt arguably the second most important championship in the promotion.
His dance partner, meanwhile, is someone he's familiar with. Hiromu Takahashi challenged for Ospreay's title back in February, and it was an instant classic, featuring some of the most incredible cruiserweight wrestling you'll ever see. But since then, the Ticking Time Bomb has only gotten better. Takahashi has just won the Best of the Super Juniors tournament in a match with Bullet Club's Taiji Ishimori. Dave Meltzer himself said it was one of the ten best matches he's ever seen (and no, it did not take place in the Tokyo Dome, settle down).
Many people are expecting Okada-Omega to be match of the night for this show, but with the momentum Ospreay and Takahahsi have, don't be surprised if they steal this one.
