It's a special bonus episode of Wrestling Omakase this week! John was joined by co-host of the Brit Wres Roundtable Robin Reid (@BritWresRound (https://twitter.com/BritWresRound) ) and VOW contributor Jack Beckmann (@packerman120 (https://twitter.com/packerman120) ) just minutes after all three had finished watching Wrestle Kingdom 13 live. Listen to their thoughts on this special live broadcast of Omakase, as we also interacted with some live listeners throughout as well. We cover every match including of course the Omega-Tanahashi and Naito-Jericho main events, Okada-White and the ballsy finish, all the match results and what it could mean going forward for a lot of the talent (especially the Elite guys), the major announcements that shake up NJPW's schedule, and much more. A fun show featuring three very tired humans, this week!
