To watch live you can only watch it on New Japan World, New Japan’s streaming service.

I may have to finally get this. Just wish the time zone difference wasn't so harsh. Would not be able to watch these events live.

Yea I agree completely. I think most events start at like 2-3 am eastern. I ain’t staying up for that, and especially for Wrestle Kingdom. I’d try to get up at like 7 to catch the main event live, then go back and watch the rest after it was over.

Is it similar to WWE Network in the fact that I can just watch it the next day on their service? I find it odd that the PPV is airing on a Thursday and not a Friday Night or Saturday Night.

I’d imagine so. I don’t have it so I wouldn’t know for sure.
