#5 Kazuchika Okada and Kenny Omega II: NJPW Dominion
On June 11th, IWGP champion Kazuchika Okada and Kenny Omega renewed their rivalry, with a rematch of their epic confrontation. After having faced each other at Wrestle Kingdom XI this past January, the two men faced one another once again in a match that exceeded the length of the first.
The January title match was over 45 minutes long, resulting in Okada retaining his championship. The match was lavishly praised, and the Wrestling Observer's Dave Meltzer gave it an exceptionally rare six-star rating. So how would these men fair?
Could they match their confrontation from a few months back? Obviously, they were forced to raise the bar, and they certainly did. This time, they fought to an incredible 60-minute draw. The match teased a questionable finish, as Omega's fellow Bullet Club member Cody attempted to ‘thrown in the towel' on Kenny's behalf.
The draw was exactly what was needed in order to ensure a third match is still on the table for them.
