NJPW Coming to the States

Not all companies treat tournaments like the King of the Ring (Sorry WWE). As one company in particular has a tournament that in some cases tops some titles in prestige and inportance. That companies name is New Japan Pro-Wrestling and the tournament is the G1 Climax. For those who may not know the tournament is basically comparable to the WWE Royal Rumble because the winner of the tournament advances to Wrestle Kingdom in January for a shot at the IWGP World title and Wrestle Kingdom is NJPW's version of Wrestlemania. 

Last year history was made at the G1 Climax event when Kenny Omega became the first International star to win the tournament in the short history of the event and this year NJPW will make history again. This is because for the first time in history New Japan will be holding events in California which will include Qualifying matches for this years G1 Climax. Specifically the events will be held in Long Beach California at the Long Beach Convention Center. Tickets aren't on sale as of yet for the events which will take place on July 1 and 2nd this year.
